  • I searched existing issues and did not find a duplicate.
  • I included enough detail to reproduce or investigate the problem.

Area

apps/web

Steps to reproduce

  1. Launch T3 Code Nightly on macOS.
  2. Snap or resize the desktop window to the left or right half of the screen.
  3. Increase the UI zoom until the sidebar changes to the overlay/drawer layout.
  4. Open the sidebar using the top-left sidebar button.
  5. Click Search at the top of the sidebar.
  6. As a control, zoom out until the persistent desktop sidebar returns and click Search again.

Expected behavior

Clicking Search should close the sidebar drawer if necessary and open the command palette with its search input focused, regardless of the window width or UI zoom.

Actual behavior

In the narrow overlay/drawer layout, clicking Search only closes the sidebar. The command palette does not appear.

After zooming out enough for the persistent desktop sidebar to return, the same Search control opens the command palette normally.

Impact

Minor bug or occasional failure
